THE TRAXXAS TQ RADIO SYSTEM
TQ RADIO SYSTEM RULES
Each time you prepare to run your model, you
must clear your frequency to be sure no one else
in the area is using the same channel as you.
There are six possible channels, numbered 1
through 6. Each is represented by a color. Look
at the crystal plugged into the back of your
transmitter to determine which channel your
model is assigned to.
Always turn your TQ transmitter on first and off
last. This procedure will help to prevent your
model from receiving stray signals from another transmitter,
or other source, and running out of control.
Always have the transmitter turned on before plug in
the battery.
Always use new or freshly charged batteries for the radio system.
Weak batteries will limit the range of the radio signal between the
receiver and the transmitter. Loss of the radio signal can cause you
to lose control of your model.
TQ RADIO SYSTEM SETUP
The TQ Radio System was pre-adjusted at the factory. The adjustment
should be checked, before running the model,
in case of movement during shipping. Here’s how:
1. Fully extend the chrome antenna mast on the transmitter and turn
the switch on. The red indicator light on the transmitter should be
solid red (not flashing).
2. Elevate the model so that the rear tires are off the ground.
If you are holding the model, grip it firmly. Make sure your hands
are clear of the moving parts of the model.
3. Plug the battery pack in the model into the speed control.
4. The on/off switch is integrated into the speed control. With the
transmitter on, press the XL-5 set button for ½ second, until the
LED shines red, then immediately release the button. This turns the
model on (see page 14 for more on XL-5 setup and operation). To
turn the XL-5 off, press the set button until the red LED turns off.
Note: If the LED shines green, Low-Voltage Detection is activated. This
will cause erratic performance from the included NiMH battery pack.
The default factory setting is for Low-Voltage Detection to be disabled
(LED shines red). Make sure to turn the Low-Voltage Detection on
when using LiPo batteries.
Never use LiPo batteries while Low-
Voltage Detection is turned off. See page 14 for more information.
5. Turn the steering wheel on the transmitter back and forth and
check for rapid operation of the steering servo. Also, check that the
steering mechanism is not loose or binding. If the steering operates
slowly, check for weak batteries.
6. When looking down at model, the front wheels should be pointing
straight ahead. If the wheels are turned slightly to the left or right,
slowly adjust the steering trim control on the transmitter until they
are pointing straight ahead.
7. Operate the throttle trigger to ensure that you have full forward
and reverse operation, and that the motor stops when the throttle
trigger is at neutral.
8. Once adjustments are made, turn off your model, followed by the
hand held transmitter.
RANGE-TESTING THE TQ RADIO SYSTEM
Before each running session with your model, you should range-test
your radio system to ensure that it operates properly.
1. Turn on the radio system and check its operation as described in
the previous section.
2. Have a friend hold the model. Make sure hands and clothing are
clear of the wheels and other moving parts on the model.
3. Make sure your transmitter antenna is fully extended, and then
walk away from the model with the transmitter until you reach the
farthest distance you plan to operate the model.
4. Operate the controls on the transmitter once again to be sure that
the model responds correctly.
5. Do not attempt to operate the model if there is any problem with
the radio system or any external interference with your radio signal
at your location.

Your speed control was
adjusted to the radio from
the factory. It is possible
for the throttle trim control
on the transmitter to have
moved during transit
or while handling the
transmitter. If the motor
runs when the model is
switched on, then move the
throttle trim control on the
transmitter until the motor
stops. If anything more
than a slight adjustment of
the throttle trim control is
required, then you should
readjust your speed control.
Refer to the adjustments
section on page 14.
Remember, always turn the
TQ transmitter on first and
off last to avoid damage to
your model.
When rechargeable batteries
begin to lose their charge,
they will fade much faster
than alkaline dry cells. Stop
immediately at the first sign
of weak batteries. Never turn
the transmitter off when the
battery pack is plugged
in. The model could run out
of control.
